In this wild episode of Coffeez for Closers, we sit down with Eric Michael—the founder of Major League Profits, and the face of a booming collectibles empire built off flipping sports cards and Pokémon.
Eric shares how he went from a $30K high school side hustle to a full-blown business teaching thousands how to make consistent income flipping cards. We talk shop on AI-powered grading, turning eBay into cashflow, building with best friends, living with your CMO, and scaling a coaching company that runs like the military—all before 30.
This episode is a deep dive into the future of collectibles, creator-led education, and why in-person culture beats Zoom every time. If you’re a parent, collector, or entrepreneur—this one’s for you.
Most people don't realize how much their personal information is being bought and sold every day. Data brokers are making billions, pulling details about you from public records and the internet, and then packaging and selling it, usually without your consent. That's how your information lands in the hands of scammers, spammers, even stalkers. It's why you get endless robocalls and why ads seem to follow you everywhere. That's where Aura comes in. Aura actively removes your data from broker sites and keeps it off. They also instantly alert you if your information shows up in a breach or on the dark web. But Aura goes beyond data protection. With one app, you get a VPN, antivirus, password manager, spam call protection, dark web monitoring, and even up to $5 million in identity theft insurance. All backed by 24/7 US-based fraud support. Other companies might sell just credit monitoring, or just a VPN. Aura gives you all of it, together, at the same price competitors charge for just one service.

I would have rather sat and lived under a bridge than work in corporate America. But now you are corporate America. Now we are corporate. It's different because I'm the top. So I get the help people want to do and I get the show up when I want. Thank you for having me. How's it going? Hey. Thanks for coming on the show. Back from nationals in Chicago, National Card Convention. So that's a big deal. Eric, I like to start the show off with everybody the same way. What's your morning routine? Oof. Yeah. All right. My morning routine is my alarm goes off at $6.45. I roll right out of bed. I brush my teeth. I go once we build a decently sized gym on our balcony, on our apartment. I lift weights for an hour, shower, skateboard to my office. How's that? It's very simple. It's very simple. I have a dog, electric skateboard, taking right to the office, but there's nothing special. It's just brush teeth and go right in lift weights. Yeah, yeah. I know you're a big fan of Hermosi and he's not a much of a morning routine guy either. A lot of what I say, you'll feel like, am I talking to Hermosi because I've been, I've probably watched every video of his ever since he started.
